Grantham 2 off to a winning start
Grantham 2 began the 2011-2012 Nottinghamshire Chess League season with an away match at Nottingham Central. Despite the somewhat noisy conditions, with a lively Irish folk group playing in the pub below, Grantham came away winners 3-2. There were wins for Ivan David and Will Grummitt and draws for Chris Holt and Ben Mason. Special mention should go to Will, who will be off to study at Durham University in a few weeks, who won very quickly in a sharp variation of the poetically-named 'Fried Liver attack.'
